JEWISH TEXTS: THE OWNER'S MANUAL

Maqom is now making available, online, a curriculum entitled "Jewish Texts: The Owner's Manual". It is designed to help learners be aware of classic Jewish texts and to give them the skills they will need to use those texts. After going through this curriculum, learners will be able to look up a chapter and verse in the Tanach, identify the basic contents of each book in the Tanach, each order of the Mishnah and each volume of the Mishneh Torah and Shulchan Aruch, tell the difference between midrash, aggadah and halakhah and be able to trace an idea through the major Jewish sources.

The curriculum comes in both learner's and teacher's versions. Those conducting self-study, can check their answers by looking at the teacher's version.

This curriculum can be used in supplementary schools, day schools, Basic Judaism classes and Adult Education courses.

If you use the curriculum, please consider making a tax-deductible donation of $72 to Maqom, P.O.B. 31900-323, Houston, TX 77231

Thank you and enjoy!
